' ' How to Raise Indian Oorn.
"Now let the good old crop adorn
The fields our lathers trod ;
And let us for the yellow corn,
Send up our thanks to God."
—Barlow.
How to raise a big crop of Indian corn is
a question that is asked with no little sol
icitude, by large numbers of good larmers,
especially at this season of the year. Al
though a* large crop cannot be grown on
poor, impoverished, wet and half-tilled
ground, still by observing the following
suggestions, those farmers who have been
accustomed to raise unsatisfactory crops of
this kind of grain in years past, may man
age to obtain a bountiful crop. In order to
raise Indian corn cheaply, and at the same
make the soil produce to its full capacity,
the ground must be properly prepared, at
the right season, and all the labor connect
ed with the cultivation of the crop,must be
performed at the right time, and in a far
mer-like mauner.
PREPARATION OF THE SOIL.
If the soil be naturally wet, it must be
relieved of the superabundance of mois
ture, or it will be vain to attempt to grow
a remunerating crop of this kind of grain.
Better not plow a furrow till the first day
of June, than to work such land while it is
excessively wet. Let the first work be to
underdrain such land. Employ a few extra
workmen, and make one or two hundred
rods of underdrain, before plowing the
ground. If you can get the ground drain
ed and the seed put in by the 10th or 15th
of June, by planting the improved King
Philip, or early Canada variety, you will
have a good crop, unless there should be a
frost unusually early,next fall. We would
urge once more the absolute importance of
underdraining. The increased amount of
grain will defray the entire expense in one
season. We have tried the experiment,and
know whereof we affirm.
The Indian corn plant is a gross feeder,
for which reason, ground will bear to be
manured heavily when the kind of grain is
planted. If noxious weeds of any kind oc
cupy the ground, defer plowing, until the
soil has become warm, and vegetation is
pushing forward with great rapidity. Then
plow and plant as soon as practicable. If
the subsoil be heavy, do not plow the sur
face soil too deep, nor so deep as to bring
up any of the unfertile and cold subsoil to
the surface. Let the best, richest and mel
lowest earth be kept at the surface. If tfye
ground be in sod, plow with lapped furrow
slices, not more than five or six inches deep,
and let a subsoil plow follow in the furrow
of the plow that turns the surface soil.
MARKING OCT THE GROUND.
The proper distance apart for the rows
and making them straight, are the most im
portant considerations in marking out corn
ground. If the rows be straight, so that
the cultivator or horse hoe can be worked
close to the hills, almost all the labor of
dressing and weeding, can be performed
with horses ; whereas,if the rows be crook
ed. a portion of the hills will be rooted up,
while many of them will stand so far from
the place where the horse-hoe passed, that
a great deal of labor with hand-hoes will
be required, to keep down the weeds and
grass. Labor is too expensive,at the pres
ent time, to employ men to hoe corn by
hand. By plowing the ground late,we save
one hoeing of the plants ; and by making
the lows straight, horse-hoes will perform
all the hoeing so well, that one person,with
a hand-hoe,will be able to keep up with the
cultivator.
The kind of corn planted should deter
mine the distance apart for the rows. The
King Philip, early Canada, and other small
kinds, had better be about two feet and
nine inches apart each way. If in drills,
three feet apart,and one kernel every eight
inches,will yield a larger crop of grain than
to plant four kernels in a hill.
PREPARATION OF SEED.
If there are no apprehensions that birds,
or other animals, will pull the corn after it
has been planted, it will be better to plant
the seed dry. But as crows, blackbirds,
doves, squirrels, mice, and gallinaceous
fowls, will pull corn, the grain must be
tarred, which is an infallible remedy. Be
fore tarring, steep the grain about twelve
hours in warm water. It is highly inju
rious to seed corn to soak it over twelve
hours. The object of soaking it, is to fill
the kernels with moisture before applying
the tar, which will exclude the moisture
necessary to insure germination if applied
to the dry seed.
APPLICATION OF FERTILIZERS.
Almost every farmer can collect from the
dove cote, hennery, goose pens and duck
coops, several barrels of the choicest kind
of fertilizing matter,equal almost to guano.
Let it be run through a threshing machine
to pulverize it, or beat it with flails ; then
sprinkle a haudfull around every hill, or
where the plants are to grow, spreading
the manure thinly over an area of eighteen
inches in diameter. Guano, or other ma
nure, should be applied in the same man
ner. If such manure be thrown down in a
pile, as it frequently is, only a few roots
are fed, while most of the roots suffer for
want of nourishment. By spreading it over
a larger surface, there will be no danger
that the strong manure will injure the grow
ing plants. If such manure is applied af
ter planting, it should be covered lightly to
prevent the wind blowing it away If such
concentrated manure cannot be applied at
the time of planting, it may be spread
around each hill, after the corn liafs come
up, just before it is dressed out with culti
vators and hoes. By this means, the ferti
lising matter will be all covered with earth,
and the roots of the corn will be well fed.
Manuring bountifully, with clean cultiva
tion, will insure an abundant crop.
The Best Time to Out Grass.
There has been a diversity of practice
among farmers as to the best time to cut
grass for hay. At the recent New York
State I air the subject was discussed at a
meeting of agriculturists held in the eve
ning. The Oennexsee Farmer gives the fol
lowing report of the discussion :
Mr. J. Stanton Gould opened the discus
sion. He took decided ground against al
lowing grass to get dead ripe before it was !
i ut. Professor A\ ay s experiments showed ■
that grasß cut just as the plants were going !
out ol flower,contained forty per cent, more '
nutriment than when dead ripe. Was sat- ]
isfied from his own experience that it was
better to cut grass early. Timothy allow
ed to get ripe was no better than rye straw.
1 e seeds of hay do not digest in the stom
ach. Cows dry up when fed on ripe hay.
"In regard to making hay, he remarked
that the object was to secure as much of
the nutriment of the grass as possible. We
could not secure the whole. There was a
losH in curing and from fermentation, etc.—
Jhe best way was to allow the grass to
wilt as rapidly as possible, by exposing it
to the air and sunshine. Four hours of good
sunshine and it is r< ady to cock It should
not be exposed to de w while spread out It
washes out the nutriment
"Mr. San AM oe, of Columbia county
}.. graa* in ti-e looming t.Ji JJ o'clock'
After 'ltt.sj.t thai i uc i <-*.< aod v/.i up the '
hay. It was necessary,in the valley of the
Hudson, to commence to cock early on ac
~ count of the dew. Allows the hay to stand
in the cock one daj. Next day open and
draw in.
"In regard to the time of cutting hay, to
be fed out on the farm, there conld be but
one opinion. It should be cut early Bar
ley straw is better than over ripe timothy.
s But for market it was necessary to let it
got ripe. It sells better.
"Mr. Brewer, of Tompkins, raised consid
erable clover seed, and consequently cut
1 his clover hay early. Thought there was
a loss in weight, but gain in quality.—
> Draws it in rather green Has poles on the
* bottom of his bay, so that there is a circu
lation ; puts the hay in loose aud it cures
nicely. If it is very greer sometimes mix
' es a little straw with it iu stacking." Timo
-3 thy meadows mowed early and the rowan
> allowed to rot on tho ground will improve
1 greatly.
"Mr. Van Alstine, in reply to a question,
said he puts four pounds of salt to a ton of
hay when cut green. Thought a crop of
grass that would make a ton of hay if al
lowed to get ripe, would give only fifteen
3 hundred weight if cut green. If allowed
" to get over-ripe it would begin to lose
J weight agaiu.
"Dr. Gill of Ponghkeepsie, cuts clover
f very early, and cocks it in an hour in small
3 cocks ; draws iu next day. Hay cocked
J green is not hurt by a shower as much as
1 hay cocked dry.
* "Several gentlemen spoke ; all in favor
3 of cutting grass early.
"Solon Robinson, of New York, was ask
-1 ed why it was that ripe hay was preferred
I in the city. He said that the President of
1 the Third Avenue Railroad Company, had
1 studied this subject carefully,and had made
experiments with different foods, and had
f finally concluded that the best and most
I economical daily ration for the horse was
3 sixteen pounds of corn meal and fourteen
1 pounds of ripe timothy hay. The hay was
chaffed and moisteued with water, and the
> meal mixed with it. A little salt was ad
-3 ded.
3 "In reply to a question, Mr. Robinson
" said that the timothy was so ripe that the
3 seeds would grow. In feeding trotting
3 | horses, the hay is given them uncut. In
1 ! the stables where the experiments were
f made to which he alluded, over one thous
" and horses were kept.
' "Mr. Curtis, of Tompkins, cut his hay
1 early for cows,and feeds that which he cuts
" last to horses. Timothy cut while in bloom
! will give horses the heaves.
"Solon Robinson thought that for milch
i cows hay should be cut early. But for hor
' ses, one ton of timothy cut when the seed
will grow is worth two tons cut green."
1 Destroy the Caterpillars
: If dogs are a nuisance, if drunkenness,
I small pox, and other kindred scourges, are
fit subjects of regulation by legislatures,
caterpillars certainly are ! They are a
plague of no ordinary character. We be
lieve the annual loss in Massachusetts oc
j casioued by caterpillars is fifty times as
much as that caused by dogs 1 And yet
} the fathers ot the commonwealth have nev
| er put a line upon the statute book in rela
| tiou to them ; have suggested no remedy,
. | passed no resolution, interdicted no man
from raising and scattering through the
, land as many legions as he pleases each
■ coming year ! Horn pouts and pouts and
pickerel ! Shad and ale wives ! Robins and
woodcocks ! Crows and wild cats,what caii
they all do to harm or benefit mankind,com
i pared with the wide-sprend destruction
| caused by caterpillars.
■! In August when the nests of the vermin
I j are old aud filled with their debris, thous-
I ands of orchards of New England are ob
| jects of disgust and loathing rather than
* I one of the most beautiful features of our
, J unrivalled landscapes. Tattered nests dan
I gle from the branches of the trees filled
, with the cast off-skins and exuviae of rnil
| lions of worms, and, moistened by rain, are
rotting in the atmosphere and shedding
their foul contents upon what little fruit is
permitted to grow,and poisoning the grass
beneath the trees.
In assisting in gathering several hund
red barrels of apples within a few years,
where we had ample opportunity of notic
ing their quality, we do not believe that
more than one barrel of them in twenty
were sound. This mischief, aud great loss, ,
. | is occasioned by ou,r fruit growers ueglect
, ing to destroy caterpillars, of one kind and
another, as fast as their nests appear. We
speak now of one kind only—of those that
have obtained such notoriety that they are
, almost exclusively known among us by
the name of the caterpillar, and they'are
the worst enemies of the orchard. Harris
says : Where proper attention had not been
paid to the destruction of them they pre
vail to such an extent as almost entirely to
strip the apple and cherry trees of their fo
liage, by their attack continued during the 1
seven weeks of their life in tho caterpillar ,
form.
The trees in those gardens where they
have been suffered to breed for a succes- i
sion of years become prematurely old, in 1
consequence of the efforts they are obliged ,
to make to repair, at an unseasonable time, 1
the loss of their foliage, and are rendered
unfruitful, and consequently unprofitable.
But this is not all ; these pernicious in
sects spread in every direction, from the •
trees of the careless and indolent to those 1
of their more careful and industrious neigh
bors, whose labors are thereby greatly in
creased, and have to be followed up year
after year, without any prospect of perma
nent relief.
Ise a pole with a brush, sponge, or rag
on the end of it. Dip in a bucket of strong
soap suds and poke it into the inidst of the
oest, turning it round so as to wet them
all, and rub the branches about the nest.— '
Wherever the suds touches it will kill 1
them. i
We wish there was a law fixing a pen- '
alty upon any person upon whose premises i
a dozen nests could be found in the month 1
of July, and that it was made imperative ,
upon the selectmen or assessors of every :
town to see that the law was enforced* Ev
ery farmer knows that the destruction
caused by caterpillars is a serious annoy- l
ance and evil to the community, and yet 1
j there are some—alas.too many—who takes
little or no pains to do their duty in this ,
| particular. It is a mistake to say that they
. have no time to destroy them. They have 1
all the time there is for any of us, and they
cannot afford to incur the cost of raising
trees and then suffer them to die before
their time, through the agency of caterpil
lars.
This thing ought to be a matter of duty
and conscience. Some persons complain of
the enroachments of a neighbor's dogs, or
cattle, and very justly, too, perhaps, while
they allow their apple or wild cherry trees '
to be covered with caterpillars enough de
stroy half the orchards in the land. "Con
sistency is a jewel." We suggest to such
a story about a mote and a beam in the
eye.— New England Famur.
CRISP GINGER CAKES.— Take three pounds '
of flour, one pound of sugar, three table
spoonfuls of ginger, wet with molasses, i
roll thin, cut in small cakes,and bake them 1
I quick.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS EXPERIENCE
IN DENTISTRY.— J. S. SMITH, M. D., would re
spectfully inform the inhabitants of Bradford Connty
that he is permanantly located in Waverly, N.Y., where
he has been in the practice of his profession for the past
four years. He would say that from his iong and suc
cessful practice of 25 years duration, he is familiar with
all the different styles of work done in any and all Den
tal establishments in city or country, and is better pre
pared than any other Dental operator in the vicinity to
do work the best adapted to the many and different
cases that present themselves oftentimes to the Dentist,
as he understands the art of making his own artificial
teeth, and has facilities (or doing the same. To those
requiring under sets of teeth he would call attention to
his new kind of work which consists ot porcelain lor
both plate and teeth, and forming a continuous gum. It
is more durable, more naturai in appearance, and much
better adapted to the gum than any other kind of work.
Those in need of the same are invited to call and exam
ine specimens. Teeth filled to last for years and otten
t mes for lite. Chloroform, ether, and "Nitrous oxide"
administered with perfect safety, as over lour hundred
patients within the last four years can testify.

the very best style, at his office.
